AI Startup Jentic Unveils Infrastructure to Make AI Agents Safer and More Secure
Jentic, the Dublin-based AI infrastructure company, is debuting a secure execution and credentialing system for AI agents, along with opening its private beta launch for participants.
According to the company, this update introduces managed authenticated execution and a new developer-facing interface, giving teams centralized control over how agents access APIs and sensitive credentials.
This launch addresses what Jentic describes as a major flaw industry-wide: “Today, most AI agents today store credentials in prompts or local code, making them difficult to govern and easy to compromise.”
Jentic now offers a safer, centralized approach, empowering developers to connect any agent (built using frameworks such as LangChain, Autogen, an agent builder platform such as Amazon AWS Bedrock, Google Vertex AI, Microsoft Copilot studio, or anything else) to Jentic’s hosted infrastructure using Model Context Protocol (MCP) or REST.
Agents can get work done by securely using over 1,500 APIs and more than 2,000 prebuilt workflows, without exposing secrets in the agent code.
With this update, developers gain a full control plane for agent infrastructure, inclduing:
- A web-based credential vault for secure key storage
- Role-based access controls for agents and workflows
- Hosted execution over the open Model Context Protocol (MCP)
- Support for both code-first and no-code agents
- Audit logs to monitor usage and enforce governance
Jentic also flags “Jentic Tested” APIs, highlighting integrations that have been vetted and confirmed to work reliably. Developers are encouraged to contribute improvements via Jentic’s open source repos, the vendor said.
“The way most AI agents run today creates real risk,” said Sean Blanchfield, co-founder and CEO at Jentic. “You’ve got secrets flying around in prompts and client-side code, with no way to revoke access or enforce consistent controls. That’s a security problem just waiting to happen. Our latest release at Jentic solves that while instantly tapping your agent into thousands of APIs and workflows. It’s like plugging your agent into the grid.”
This is the first in a series of infrastructure upgrades that will move Jentic from a developer tool to a full enterprise platform for agents in business, the company said.
A hosted version of Jentic’s own agent for non-developers is currently in private beta at https://jentic.com/waitlist.
